Gnome Keyboard Indicator 2.11.93 does not change layouts

I suppose you're talking about

"Keyboard layout switcher: enables you to assign different layouts to your
 keyboard to suit different locales."

which is in gnome-applets.

Does this still happen with gnome-applets 2.12?

I have the same issue, changing keyboard layout is not possible with the panel
applet and also not possible with the keyboard preferences.

The only way to change keyboard preferences is setxkbmap.

Ubuntu Breezy 5.10 with Gnome 2.12 (updated today).

This bug describes the same issue: http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15127

Severity should be major - loss of function

I've forwarded the issue upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316092

what layout do you use? could you run "gconftool-2 -R
/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd" and copy that here?

(In reply to comment #5)

gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = [de nodeadkeys,us intl]
 model =
 options = [grp grp:alts_toggle,eurosign eurosign:e]
 overrideSettings = true

Thank, that's the same issue as #15372

I have noticed interesting behaviour. When I remove all layouts from the layout
list and add "Lithuanian US" (Ltu) and "U.S. English" (USA), I have US layout
when Ltu is activated and Ltu layout when USA is activated on the applet (!).

When I add another leyout, e.g. Russian Phonetic, it can be seen on the list
(all 3 layouts), but when I click on the applet only USA and Ltu laytous appear.

mjoc@orion:~$ gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
 layouts = [lt us,us,ru phonetic]
 model = pc104
 overrideSettings = false
 options = [grp grp:alts_toggle]

After executing 'setxkbmap "lt(us)"' I have what I need, Lithuanian US keymap.
